How do I set up a Piazza discussion board for my site?
The Piazza discussion board too is available for both Course and Project sites.
Go to Piazza.
Note: If Piazza is not listed in your site's Tool Panel, you can add the tool to the site under Site Editor / Edit Tools.
Add estimated enrollment number, then click Create Class.
The first time you click on the site's Piazza button, a Create Class page is displayed.
Create Account, click Continue.
If you do not already have a Piazza user account, you will need to create one.
Your username is your e-mail address. Remember your username / password. You will need your password to add your account to future Piazza discussion boards or to access your Piazza discussion boards at http://piazza.com online or through a mobile app.
If you already have a Piazza account, you may have to confirm the account password.
View Piazza discussion board.
After the class and account have been created, your Piazza discussion board will be displayed each time you click on the Piazza tool.
Note:
Unless the instructor or organizer of the Trunk site sets-up an "Access Code", other Tufts University Piazza account holders can freely search for and join the Piazza site (not the Trunk site). To prevent non-Trunk site accounts from joining the Piazza site follow the "Access Code" directions at :
How do I manage Piazza discussion board enrollments?
If an instructor does not add an access code to the Piazza site, students enrolled in the Trunk site can access the Piazza site from the Trunk site interface and students not enrolled in the class can join the Piazza class from some other Piazza site.
If an instructor does add the access code to the Piazza site, students enrolled in the Trunk site can still access the Piazza site from the Trunk site interface but students not enrolled in the class can only join the Piazza class from some other Piazza site if they have the access code.
